Ten civil society groups have given the national government an ultimatum to reverse its lifting of the ban on GMOs failure to which they will institute legal action. The group says it may consider mass action to compel the government to rescind its decision. The groups cited lack of public participation and lack of capacity by the national biosafety authority to execute a regulatory role on GMOs processes.

Wakulima wa mahindi humu nchini wanatarajiwa kupata mbegu zilizoimarishwa kupitia teknolojia ya GMO kuanzia mwezi Machi mwaka ujao. Hii ni kwa mujibu wa wanasayansi kutoka taasisi ya utafiti wa kilimo na mifugo KALRO, ambao wamemaliza majaribio kwa mahindi haya ya bayoteknolojia. Mengi ni katika makala ya wiki hii ya Kilimo Biashara.

#GMO #유전자변형
최근 차와 버블티를 전문으로 하는 식음료 업체 ‘공차’에서 당도 0%의 초당 옥수수 신메뉴를 발표했습니다. 달달한 옥수수를 원료로 하기 때문에 당도 조절 없이도 고당도 수준의 단 맛을 내는 것으로 유명합니다.

초당 옥수수 외에도 달달한 토망고(토마토+망고), 씨 없는 수박, 파란 딸기 등 우리 주변엔 이미 대표적인 GM 푸드들이 식탁 위를 차지하고 있습니다. 이 식품들을 모두 유전자 조작 식품으로 규정하는데, 도대체 GMO는 무엇일까요?
